school she was literally 22 years old. She was really nice because she kind of just had

no idea what she was doing in the classroom and the whole year it was just kind of like

a roller coaster of up-and-down emotions. Sometimes she gets so stressed out and just her crying

in the middle of class and would be like "oh my god I'm just like so stressed,

you guys are just awful!" And of course everyone in my class kind of picked up on the fact that she

had like no idea what she was doing so they all just made it worse for her by like thinking

they could do whatever they wanted and that just made her cry more and everything just

got so stressful and there was just no structure in the class.

So one day we were in the classroom

and we were studying ancient Greece and suddenly I just saw her face go completely white.

And she was looking at the clock so me and all the other kids in the class just looked up

at the clock too but instead of it saying the time it said "BELL" and I later found out

that BELL was the code word for a real lockdown but I didn't know that yet. So my classmates

and I just watched as she scrambled to the lock the door closed the blinds and then she

instructed us to hide in the corner of the room. And then she just says. "stay quite where

the lockdown." And she was in tears at this point she was shaking and she was curled up

in the corner behind her desk. This was the moment when I realized this wasn't a lockdown

drill. This was an actual lockdown and I was freaked out I just straight-up asked her,

"Are we gonna die?" And she looked at me and as gravely as possible she said, "I don't know."

And that literally just sent the whole class added tears. Some kids were teasing trying to jump

out the window. My teacher was screaming at them if there's someone in this building there

could be more people outside waiting to get you.

I was just freaked out the whole time

I was literally just thinking about dying it's so morbid when I was I was thinking about

like what I hadn't done in my life yet and what more I had to do and I was basically

the thinking of my last second and then all of a sudden there's a knock on the door.

And we all just like shot up we thought this would be intruder. First of all why would the intruder

knock on the door. We all just stay there and we don't know what to do even my teacher and

then there's another knock on the door and my teacher gets up and she goes to the door.

And, it's another teacher it's the teacher next door but teacher next door asks what

we're doing and then my teacher like, "What? Isn't there a lockdown?" The teacher next store goes

"no they were just fixing the clock and that message came on." So then we all kind of got

up from the corner we were like, "wait there was no lockdown?" And I looked into the hallway

and then everything was just normal. Kids were in class they were laughing they were walking

up and down the hall doing their homework there was literally no lockdown. The only class

in lockdown was our class. Since that day I've experienced a lot more lock downs they're

really upsetting and scary and I just wish it wasn't a reality of the world we live in.
